Re: Quotation curiosity



I found a website of Chicago vernacular that says this about vote early,
vote often: "Vote early and vote often":  A quote from Al Capone regarding
Chicago's electoral system.

Anybody out there know the genesis of the quote "Vote Early, vote Often"
that is
ascribed to Chicago politics?  This is, believe it or not, an actual
reference
question.

Every now & then something interesting actually comes along.

Thanks,

DS
